Hello TCS families. We trust that you have had a good week and hope that you enjoy a great weekend. Here are a few news items that we wanted to share with you.

Revive Ohio:

The Lima Baptist Temple is hosting a community event known as Revive Ohio next week. Over fifty churches are coming together to take the Gospel to the Lima community.
